Mommas Car —
love the gas mileage and the zip its got KIA did a very excellent job on the way they geared transmission to get such power out of the little engines they use, the only thing i cant get over is there is no cruise control

It's Very Good And I Like It Alot. —
There is a swooshing sound when i take off, and it sounds really wierd. there are also some scratches on the hood and chips in the windshield. Its a good, smooth going car though, with great gas mileage. Its very fun to drive!

Eh Nice —
its a nice little cheap car that gets you everywhere, the speakers blow to fast,tts pretty fast for a kia i think, very good on gas mileage, and its fun to drive overall as a car, the appearance of the car is kinda nice i guess

Good. —
I like that it is fuel efficient, it's quiet. I dislike that it does not have enough room. We have had it for almost a year now, but it is two years old. All we have done to that car since we have it is change oil , service & drive. It does about 90 miles everyday, and no prolems so far.

Nice Economical, Sturdy Car —
For a car I didn't really want, I ended up loving it. Would recommend it to anyone. Gets good mileage - 33 to 35mpg on average. Handles very well and is quiet at high speeds. MP3 auxiliary hookup is standard, which is awesome.

Spec 5 —
good acceleration,great brakes,handles very good.no repairs yet it doesnt squeak or rattle.interior is very nice easy to use controls ,seats are confy. radio needs more power but is adecuate.love the exterior it came with side sills it looks sporty and i have the optional sunroof and ABS
,gas mileage is good. maintenance just oil. car is fun to drive but my mazda is more fun!!!!

Excellent Value —
Have driven 8500 miles in my new Spectra and have only one complaint. The front drivers seat is uncomfortable and a little narrow. Features are incredible for the price. Have averaged nearly 30 MPG.

Happy New Owener —
This was such a good economical deal. A no interest five year financing with an amortization of 84 months!!! Making bi-monthly payments reasonable, flexible and amazingly affordable for a new car!
We are thrilled and since we bought on December 31 our dealership took $450 with only 68klm on the 2007 that still has a five year warranty bumper to bumper - who can loose? that came out to $16,591 for an LX Manual Transmission

Pros:
great financing, roomy, luxury feel

Cons:
no back hatch release in the car, no side curtain air bags, not as good gas milage as the Honda Fit on Hwy

Great Replacement Of My Gas Hog Truck —
I plan on hauling my fishing equipment,-motoers,ppoles,takle boxes,marien batteries ect. Great car!! I love the room & power! All this with great gas milage!! Iam hoping to put a hitch on the spectra 5. I will then be able to place my bikes & skis on!!! WOW!!! Hey I dont pull anything just makes sense to buy a KIA!
